Dorrie's Doll Diaries

Can't help m'self...

 

Current Mood : Luxuriant with my splurge

Spent on Embroidery designs : $10.50

 

Yes, I'm a bad girl. But I still don't think ten bucks every three or four months is that bad. Never mind that I've barely set foot in the Lab since I set up the Fashion Mall, and haven't crafted anything in an age - I wanted those designs, and got 'em !

 

It was the dress form designs' fault. I could have put off the rest, but I fell in love with those. Especially the wire one with the roses trailing off it. I swear, the next purse I make is gonna be a denim roll-bag - with about ten dress forms embroidered all over it, so I can justify having all of these !

 

I also bought seven other sets, ranging from sexy girl line art (often called redwork) to free-standing lace that works beautifully as crowns for dolls. I'm looking forward to making a couple of these ! I also snagged another redwork 'music' set, mostly for the antique radio and Victrola record player pieces, and some tiny miniatures that'll look good as either earrings for me or on a t-shirt for a doll. I also got a new set of bookmarks and some ocean-themed shell ornaments that are just gorgeous. Most of these I'd had on the site's wishlist for months, so I was lucky to have cash when she had a sale. Seven sets for eight bucks is a great deal !

 

Unfortunately, I didn't get the 'Star Chef' design. It's from another site, so I'll have to snag it later. I just already feel bad about grabbing all the others ! Greedy me...
